The question which mesas as at the outset

If she IA a Christian Church and haptiam is
administered by her in eceordaaoe ulth divine

the validity of her baptism must be admitted,
but If she duet not possess the character of a
Christian Church. her ministers cannot be re

conse adquently minister
the
validity - of her baptism cannot be admitted.
Is then the Church or Rome, as distinct or

she so constituted. and Is that system of reli

We feel constrained to answer In the negative.

points: Ist. The relative importance.of the

with that of Home Missions. 3d, The em

man made a speech to' elaborate these three
points.
Rev. Mr. Clark felt the object of the meeting
was a very Important one. He felt that it was
n great drawback to the prosperity of the de
nomination that they had no more churches.
Ile was pastor of a mission congregation,
which yearly paid out a large sum for the rent
of a •hall to meet In. which, If they had is

They only needed a little help to start the en

go forward themselves. And It was so with
other small churches. Glee theta a footing,

Instances where the work had fail

He thought If the church In the future did not

Rev. Mr. Jamison called nttention to the ha

three years on the burden of Kansas. and
the great dieloulty there wits the want of

brought before the people it would he just as

for that of Home Minions.
He did not believe It would be Miter to

Rev. Mr. McClelland favored the union of
the two Boards. Hero was the Board of Boom

Church Extension might appropriate a sum of
money to place where it has proved in oast

because they had considered the debt pre

more Prominence should be given to the
church extension. He knew something of the
trouble experienced from the want of church

a hone, and then was formed a nucleus
around wide the congregation could gather.
Rev. S. !L Coon said that be had no doubt
that the work was important. He thought It

sort of union to be unwise. Then br

agency. •
The plan of organisation, however, was not

churches were patios more attention to it.
One of there, for instance, accompanied the
report of their work by a small map, which

Rev. Mr. Arnold offered the following:

The excitement ran so high that at lad a
committee was appointed to take the matter

succeeded, like other's in dividing aeon the

those have been under discussion for two ses

meeting, necepted a proposal. on the part of

of these funds front the object contemplated

And Whew-% We believe that mild action Is
a breach of faith with the Second Synod of the

NINOItrTT REPORT.
To the. Associate SeMal MM. in semi..
The undersigned, it minority of your Com
mittee forhu Theological Seminary, would
!Mrdi your consideration tbc following
report
The Ansuclate Symid of North America, not
Ito last meeting held In the city- of Monmouth,
Illinois, took action with It view td the con
solidation of the Theological Seminary at
Xenia. Ohio, with the Theological Seminary
f the northwest under the care of the I .
P. Synods of Illinois, lowa and Kansas, now
located at Monmouth. Illinois, and the anal
td lulsptritspenrit.o,l,,lol.ll.,ll.lritntli:: i t u r te ere res t t o n. ourry
out
t ; bill of Synod no expressed In their netlen.
T e committee appointed to co-operate with
t e committees of the said Synods of Illinois
and lowa. noel with them in Joint committeo I
I took appropriate action. Tbe Synods of
Illinois, lowa nod Kansas have favorably nod
in good faith accepted the conditions of con
oolinintion proposed by the Synod. The As-
Pointe Synod Is therefore bound in covenant
to abide by her Crffered terms of consolida
tion, and cannot go back In good .faith ors
le. released by the parties—the Synods
named above—with which she ban entered
into covenant. To snake good her covenant
stipulations. she is by morally and by
civil law unless released by mold Synods. -
Two memorials have come before yon ask
ing you to setrudde your action .in the matter
of consolidation. The grounds — ulleged why
Synod should take ouch . action are simply
these:
Ist. .idynntage wns taken of the people not
being aware that such action was euntem-
Itt e .d .
- answered an d the
. . ..
This question in fully
friends of the consolidation completely vin
dicated from this uncharitable insinuatjim, by
this simple and candid statement recentlY
published by our venernble (other the Rev. Dr.
Scott.
:hut. Seminary funds and other funds of the
church would be thereby lontl to the church.
Thin objection if true regards the holding
and disbursing of the few thousands of dol
lars nutter control of the bi_voksl as of para
mount importance when pinced In the irate
whic h pan with the bright consideration
w influenced the Synod to take' action
looking to consolidation—Synod looked to the
higher interests of the church. These. your
Inemorinlists some to ignore.
It teems to he alleged that the SemluarY Is
little more than joint stock company and
the funds to be Invested and used only in
Xenia. It be so, these funds are theirs,
not the Synod's to be used as she
deems • hest • calculated to sithierve the
Interests of the Church. Out Smins are
given to her to be used its she may judge beet,
unless the terms of gift make it specific.
The
mere naming of a person or an institution ill
Plate in for deeir..tion oalr. tad not ( or 're
striction to that locality, unless the terms of
gift ore more specific. Hence for the past
twelve or fifteen years funds given by the
Morris will to the Seminary at CauonsbUrg
have beta disbursed at Xenia. no one object.
Intr.
It le said action be. Synod hod already pre.
elpitated suit fur the property itt Xenia. Be
this as It may. your memorialists cannot for
one moment seriously believe that this aect It
in one lota the rights of the parties one ff wo!.
or another.
It has been alleged that the bequest of the ,
late Daniel Speer to the Associated Synod Is
imperilled by this action. This, we believe. is
a misapprehension. The Supreme Court of the
State of Pennsylvania in ISO decided that the
Associate Synod was the heir of Daniel
Speer. and now the laws and courts of Penn•
sylvania stand the guardian of that will, ready
nut to turn it over to the heirs because of nov
supposed misuse. but to enjoin against such
misdirection. and by mandamus compel the
disbursement of it as provided la the will.
Two objects are named in the will—the
spread of the gospel of Jesus Christ here and
elsewhere. and for the support of Pion. young
men who mar need assistance while peer. ,
ler for the gospel ministry."
These objects to be secured in such way no
sold Synod may consider will host advance
the kiugdom of Christ."
It is thus at the discretion of the Synod to
a s
rtr a u i lll i n tsli t t he s s b
u eo so b i: c e ts i:e "h lAuz m nu ' Tti
Christ. If the church provides liberally for
home and foreign missionaries. but not for ,
providing a suitable ministry, HS is the fact, It
Is right trod proper to opportion an she be
lieves they relatively ueed. The relative dile.
tribution Made by Synod can then face work
ers for the future. Doth the consolidated
Seminary outi Westminster College. accept
ing, would .Ite required to disburse these
fundanot In 4upport of professors, but to:sup
port p.r young men. as required by the will.
All this it secured. not only by eivil court,
but also by the guardian care of tke General
Assembly. to which nn annual report of the
diaburscutent of these fowls Is to I C made by.
acts of these institutions.
1, ~,
3. Argument is breach of faith is tit the Sec ,
ud C. P. Synod. in an implied promise to
11.114 over to them the funds of the nlB Asso
ciate Synod.
This assumption is simply preposterous.
Nowhere known to us does the evidence oil
such ~tt promise exist. The tender made
stun not '• in perfection." At no
time and nowhere did , the Associate
Synod relinquish or Covenant to relinquish het
right to give direction to her Interests in the
Seetienry Os she deemed would best 'observe'
the cautery( Christ. If she had - sot reserved
to herself that right whs...raise endowment
with special provision of losing put under her
goes, Is It reasonable that she would regard
herself under such unreserved promise whilst
the second synod falling to provide for It she
' voted thousand. ponthousands to par in
debtedness and supplement salaries. And
why. toe. If Om were under such promise.
why was there so much well known solicitude
to have it pot In a posit!oo of better guaranty
front thr future work of the church. This

objections.. .
We think the line of policy Indicated by the
action of the Steal last year eminently Prop
er, right in itself end demanded
thehe higher
interests of the church. DM question
come. Up. has the Skeleton Associate Synod
Moral and legal right to control the funds
belonging to her prior to the consummation
of the onion. .Vier mature reflection, as we
think. We must say, no. These funds and the
PinisPertY of the old A. S. at the time of union
legally. and morally belong to the Gene.'
Assembly of the C. P. Church of North Amer.
ca.
The Union being consummated. ae we be
lieve, Ina constitutional way, all that be
longed to the 'hi contracting parties went
with the Into the Union, and thereby be
came the property of the united body unless
reserved by special permlssion. This la a
mincipla of common law and has been al
ready recognized by courts In divisions affect
ing the interests of the United Presbyterian
Church.
Unless It be shown that provialort has been
made to the contrary. the Seminary at Xenia
and other property and fonds belonging to
the A. S. at the time of Union. of tight belong
to and should be under control of the General
Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church
of North America.
Fathers and brethren. by trek log the follow
lowing action we will do right. We will se
care better the higher interests of the Church.
putting the Seminary where it ought to be
under care of the whole Church. We will act
Inn *ay honorable alike to the Assembly and
Associate Synod, and save ourselves from the

year to year; therefore, • '
111112cordwd. 1. That we hereby waive all sup
posed claims to the control of the property
and funds of the late Associate Presbyterian
Church of North America and hereby .k the
General Assembly of the U. P. Church to take

Resolout. 2. That we respectfully ask the
